The process shouldn't be too frightening now that we have the First Time Art Investors Expo to guide us.

This Friday at Heritage Square, artists will set up booths displaying their art for sale. But this time, the whole event is designed to teach attendees how to buy art.

Participating artists are prepared to answer questions about their work, pricing, and the selling process. The Volunteer Legal Assistance for Artists will be on-hand to help with contracts. So if you find something you like, you can baby-step your way through the process.
